Interesting fact
The 3 Kreuzers coin from the Duchy of Palatinate-Veldenz, minted during the reign of George Gustav (1595-1596), features a unique design element - a stylized depiction of a wild boar on the reverse side. This image was chosen to represent the region's rich hunting traditions and the boar's importance as a game animal in the local culture.
